Cult Of Youth

Cult Of Youth, originally the solo project of
New York's singer-songwriter Sean Ragon, debuted with
A Stick to Bind a Seed to Grow (Dais, 2008), containing the martial
Cold Black Earth,
in a style similar to the gothic apocalyptic ambient folk of Death In June, Current 93 and latter-day Swans.
Having recruited a real band, Ragon fleshed out his ideas with
chamber arrangements on Cult Of Youth (Sacred Bones, 2011).
